| Nope, try again. This band started in the 60's however, under the name "The Warlocks" |

| Something to do with "change a lightbulb" gags, but Grateful Dead is ringing a bell. Even so, I have no idea who said what, even if I am right about the band. |

You, sir, are correct.
And the quotes came from a.) Bill Graham, and b.) Jerry Garcia (the phonebook quote...a great quote, btw) |

I figured the 2nd quote might be Garcia (mostly because I'm not over-familiar with G-D) but, , you threw me for a minute on the first quote.
The idea that Bill Graham would take time out of evangelical God-bothering in order to eulogise the band struck me as weird. Then I realized; Bill Graham the promoter (who handled the Philadelphia side of Live Aid, IIRC) - not Billy Graham  |
